General Francis Clery is always the | smartest man in any company, whether in uniform or in plain clothes. He has a very. deep-seated love of fine feathers. He is always spick and span, and gives evidently immense pains to the fitof his overalls and tunic. His top boots and breeches are always the most perfect of any at the covert-side In ordinary everyday walking dress his preference lies towards bright colors. | Clery’s two splendid charges have been The ** Albert’ Toilet Sozp Co's Baby’s Own Soap makes young- sters, clean, sweet, and fresh.

Clery is a man of steady habits and simple tastes. When in London he occupies bachelor’s rooms in the St. James’ district and lives pretty regularly at the “Senior,” where he could be seen dining most nights—a modest repast, with just one pint of dry champagne. Two Lessons. No one would dream of likening the fierce tribal warriors of the Soudan to the plodding and phlegmatic Dutch- men of South Africa. Yet, these diametrically opposite peoples supply equally the text for a single sermon. That text is ‘progress.’ Each people have,though by radically different codes and methods, maintained towards the spirit cf the age the same broad rela- tion of obstruction, the some blind and intolerable bar to enlighteded advance- ment. In one case this was active, in another passive. In one resistance assumed aggressive and sanguirary forra, inspired by the religious fanati- cism of Islam; in the other the form was defensive and legislative, aided by a stubborn religious intolerance in the name cf Christianity. Butthe net re- sult was the same cnallenge to the right of the world at large to compel religious tolerance and material de- velopment where these had become essential to the genera! good. The be said, is false and Diametrically analogy, it may brutal. It is neither. opposite, apparently, in all things, the difference between the Dervish and the Dutch in Africa, in their o —* to progress, has been one of degree m ly. In each case th e alternative of « version had cl manifest. Both refused conversion, and both have thereby invited political annihilation. The right to be non-progressive is a challen; geable right, and challenge able with greater reason where not bar- barism, but assumed civilization, bars, the way of progress and of equal rights. —New York Mail and Express.
